AWESOME Bushcrafter! Lt Wright GNS. Happy Easter!🌟

[@recycled3654]

Agreed. The LT Wright GNS is one of my all-around favorite outdoors knives in my collection. I couldn't wait for a Ray Mears Woodlore, even if I could even afford one. I found the GNS in 3V scandi though and it's been a most wonderful and cherished knife for me.

[@OldForestBushcraft]

It’ s a great one. Lt Wright just kills it with their handle designs! I just got the Outback saber in 3v. Man thats a winner also. Doing a review of that also pretty soon. Thanx for watching, have a great day!

[@8626John]

Thanks for sharing your time in the spring forest and your thoughts on the GNS. Cheers!

Nice video, can't beat spending some time in the nature, cooking, testing knives and doing some bushcraft 👍 The snow situation looks very different compared to Eastern Finland. Atleast where I live there's like 70-90 cm of snow in the woods, for the most part. Well, atleast we have hankiaiset for now so its quite nice and easy to walk in the woods...

[@OldForestBushcraft]

Oh but the snow is back!😂 hahah. Takatalvi…. My daughter actually burst ti crying when she saw the snow, lol. But yeah, I can imagine there being a lot of snow in the east… I think theres always alot! ( but wait a second, 70-90cm’ s! Wtf. ok thats hardcore for april, right? Thanx for watching man!🌲🔪🌲

[@kv3515]

@@OldForestBushcraft Yeah, heard you guys got some new snow in there 😁👍. Atleast in Kuhmo and Lieksa there's about that much snow in many places. Depends on the area/woods of course. There is a big difference when you go south like a few hundred kilometres, in places like Kuopio or Joensuu there is a lot less snow already...

[@OldForestBushcraft]

Ok, wow thats a lot! Sometimes one forgets who long the country is, lol…@@kv3515

[@emilychippie2771]

Thanks for letting us tag along with your bushcraft adventures. The LT Wright looks to be holding up well and getting a nice patina from use. 👍👍

[@OldForestBushcraft]

Yeah, the more I've used it the more I like it. I btw. like patina on my blades. Gives character. Probably that feels also familiar, as I used all my youth pretty much only high carbon steel puukkos. Stainless steels were just never as good back in the day, not for hard outdoors use (outside fishing etc). Have a great day my friend!🌲🔪🌲

[@scottnorvell2955]

I got mine in Sabre grind because I had so many Scandis. It’s probably the best all around knife I own. Love it.

[@OldForestBushcraft]

The Saber looks also awesome! Thx for watching, have a great day!

[@Downfall1080]

LTWK has still retained my favorite knives of my collection as well. My JX2 Jessmuk in O1 is my prime Bushcraft go-to. With my 3V LTWK SNH usually always on my hip being an Unbeatable steak knife- yet robust and tough enough to do just about anything. I am still waiting for a special; super rare/first run of a knife based on one that we both own from LT Wright. It really does benefit greatly to be a member of the Pout house and it is at a reasonable price. Thank you for the lovely landscape and informative review. I know many really love their GNS and LT stands by the design strongly. Take care and always looking forward to your Videos! -Seth

[@OldForestBushcraft]

I will get that SNH at some point no doubt. Would make a great mushroom/bird&trout knife. I actually will also be a member of the pout house. Seems too interesting. And have to say, Im starting to be a total fanboy of their knives, lol. The more I use them, the more I love them, simple as that. Have an awesome day my friend!🌲🔪🌲

[@zacktait8926]

It’s a great knife, had mine for years and still love it. It’s one of those things where you try other knives and enjoy them but always end up back with the GNS.

[@OldForestBushcraft]

You said it. I have MANY knives but I just seem to grab this all the time with me. Fantastic knife! Thanx for watching, have a great day!🌲🔪🌲

[@jackvoss5841]

As I view videos about “my favorite” knife, axe, saw, tent, sleeping bag, sleeping pad, etc, etc, I am happily surprised at all of the choices we have. There is a LOT of nice gear available to us. We are fortunate to have all of these options available. WOW. Really, WOW. Of course, the gear that I selected is better/lighter/ cheaper/etc than all of the rest of the stuff 😇. Ahem!

The Big Bad Stove is also on my List, i have made a few years ago a Hobos Stove with Tins, but that was not so good, than i found the Buschbox but this ist for me too Expensive, i find the Price and Quality from Savotta way more better than this overpriced Bushbox. Have an awesome Day too my Friend :)!

i have the rouge river but in cpm-3v and as my hunting knife it works like a charm good skinner and bushcrafter

[@apleparulo3958]

I always wanted a GNS. I have a BHK Battlelore which is similar to the GNS and I love it. Do you have a Genesis? I am wondering if the Scandi grind is the same depth on the GNS and Genesis, or is a bit higher on the GNS? Thanks.

[@OldForestBushcraft]

I dont own the Genesis. Been wanting to get one. For my eye they seem pretty similar. Will get the Genesis at some point. Such a fan of their knives. Thanx for watching, have a great day!🌲🔪🌲

[@apleparulo3958]

@OldForestBushcraft yes , great knives they are. I have a few of LTs, very nice indeed. Also have a bhk Battlelore which looks very similar to the GNS. Love the Battlelore. As I get more experience, I think I gravitate to 01 steel. It's so easy to maintain and keeps a good edge. Thanks for your video and comments.

[@OldForestBushcraft]

I have only good things to say about O1 steel, also surprisingly stain resistant.​@@apleparulo3958

[@Mr_Obvious]

I can't blame you for making that your most used/favorite bushcraft knife. I absolutely love my GNS! Can't say it's my favorite, but it's in my top 3. I also use my LT Wright Outback a lot. LT Wright just makes such good knives. I have to admit I'm a bit jealous of where you live. You have such a beautiful environment!

[@JonJon-ey8ns]

That Outback is wonderful! Also hard to get,but a truly wonderful knife! My Rogue River is my absolute all time forever favorite, my Lagom is second place and my Sabre Grind Outback is my #3, they will all three excel in performance and any of the three will do an amazing job, just personal choices on how well they fit a particular hand! If it feels good in the hand, that’s 90% of the battle! He will have to get an Outback being he’s turning into such an LT Wright Fanboy! Ha! 😂🤣

[@OldForestBushcraft]

Oh yeah, the Outback, I’ve heard that alot! I probably need to get that one. They make so many beautiful blades. My wallet doesn’t like this new development with Lt Wright knives😂. Thanx for watching, have an awesome day my friend!🌲🔪🌲

[@OldForestBushcraft]

I looove my Rogue River, the handle feels like it was made just for my hand. Great, balanced bushcrafter. Though havent still used it so much, I have high expectations for that. Im most definitely turning into an Lt Wright fanboy😂. Such a great knives. Have a great day! Cheers!🌲⭐️🌲

[@OldForestBushcraft]

Hahah, great comment. I do love it here, in this tiny village beside big forests and lakes. Done with big citites:) I’ve really become an LTWK fanboy, lol. Such a great knives. Though the wallet is screaming for help😂. 01 has held actually very nicely against rust, and I’ve been usinig this alot. Of course some stains etc, but not bad. Better in that regard as, say 80crv2.

Cheers from Berlin/Germany! I would like to ask you if you have any knowledge about Arne Skogli "knives/blades". Years ago i was lucky enough to get my hands on a carving knive from "Skogli" but only found just a little information about him and his "blades/knifes" …thnx and keep on keeping on.

I had forgotten what Finland looks like without snow 😂. Really nice introduction with the long tailed bird (I have had a comment removed for talking about that kind of bird, stupid KZbin) and the swans. Very nice knife too. I think 3mm is a perfect thickness for a regular scandi grind.. I really don't know why they make them so thick sometimes. Awesome video Llari, I hope you had a happy Easter.

[@OldForestBushcraft]

Damn youtube, such a control freak😂. We're back with lots of snow, lol. Takatalvi time.. should lo away in week though. I think also that 3mm is about perfect. Scandi grind (with microbevels) is so sturdy anyways. Thanx for watching Tim have an awesome day!🌲🔪🌲

[@RichardBarnes-nb6nz]

Thank you for the great Easter Greeting a few days ago. I finally got a glimpse of the man that has been taking me along on his walks with discussion's about his knives and feelings about them. I am a devoted hand forged in Finland Puukko fan man, firmly believe that the Finnish people have thoroughly tested the Puukko over the past severals centuries of daily use. I doubt that LT Wright knives will stand up to that test of time. I really like your lunch preparations, when I was in Finland I bought a Murrikka socked handled fry pan and use it for toasting ham & cheese sandwiches or cooking a fish etc. for my forest lunches, breakfast and dinners it is a great addition to my cooking kit much like you folding handled one. I would love to see a video of your fly fishing adventures, your favorite gear, flies and methods of cooking fish. Look forward to seeing you next video in the beautiful Finnish forest.

[@OldForestBushcraft]

Oh I love Puukkos, If I would have to pick my favorite knife of my collection, at the moment it would be the Puukko by Jari Liukko. Centuries of tradition, and a national symbol. Not many countries that have two names for knife: veitsi is a general name for allkind of knives, kitchen, hunting, fishing etc. And Puukko means specifically an general purpouse outdoor knife. And ONLY outdoor knife. Everybody understand the difference here. And well made Puukkos are mighty strong. Never had them fail on me. Once I batoned an ond Marttiini so that the tip chipped a bit, thats it. I will definitely do more content with Fishing (in many forms) bushcrafting, foraging, hiking, outdoor food prep etc. Thanx for watching my friend, have an awesome day!

Good morning, is that the Genesis or GNS model? It’s a very nice looking blade!

Hi, thats the GNS. Absolutely fantastic blade! Thanx for watching, have a great day!

[@joncox9719]

Great Knife! The GNS is modeled after the Woodlore series of knives, wonderful knife and hard pressed to beat it's performance! LOVE the O1 steel too! 👍👍 Great review and Ohhh, such beautiful scenery!

[@OldForestBushcraft]

Yeah, im looooving the 01 steel! Really impressed after 6 months of heavy use! Just basically a perfect bushcrafter imo. Though there are runner ups of coure, Brisa Trooper 115, Rogue river etc... Just havent tested them enough. Things can always change. But at the moment GNS reigns Supreme. Have an awesome day!

[@kanukkarhu]

I was very interested in this video! I thought for sure your favourite knife might have been your Tommi puukko, or that Lagom you recently got. But the GNS is a solid choice for best bushcraft knife. I love mine! (I have three, all with different grinds...) I also like my Rogue River, but, like you, orefer the GNS I think. But it is a close race! 😊 Great video with some good points. How do you like the new Peltonen?

[@OldForestBushcraft]

Oh yeah forgot to mention that Im excluding Puukkos here. (Though one might sat they are the original bushcrafters). Meant here more of a pure, full blooded bushcraft knives, one tool option full tang knives. Aaaand there are runners ups: Lt Wright Lagom, Brisa Trooper 115 (LOVING IT), this Rogue River. Just havent tested them enough. Things might change! If I would have to choose my favorite knife it probably would be Finnish puukko. Tommi, Liukko puukko (man that is sick knife), Sissipuukko etc. Would be a Tough competition! Still haven't got the new Peltonen. Soon!!

[@kanukkarhu]

@@OldForestBushcraft Ah, that makes sense! I'm looking hard at that Brisa. Still waiting... but it will be soon enough, I think. And a Tommi is in my future too, I believe. Peltonen and Terävä are also among my favourites.

[@OldForestBushcraft]

​@@kanukkarhu I have nothing but good to say about the Trooper 115. Best Brisa by far! Imo. Fantastic knife! Of the handle I cant say for sure you'll like it, as you've said you have large hands. For me its absloutely perfect (with a little room still). Rogue River (which is very similar in specs to Trooper, tad shorter handle) is just right, super, though if it would be any smaller, wouldn't be good.

The 2 best I know of, are the Rob Evans MK Tribute SKookum knife and the Casstrom no 10. LT Wright makes great quality knives but I find the designs (even on the Morakniv Bushcraft Black) Superior to any LT Wright. Knife is all about geometries on both the main and edge bevels, as also handle design. Being comfortable, isn't enough for a Bushcraft knife design and that s sp,ething that handles like those on Casstrom no 10 and Bushcraft Black, will prove to the user. They offer better stability and generaly, they make things work better and easier. Simple handle designs, like on GNS,Genesis, Mora Companion, are great for general use utility knives, but not the perfect,for some main "Bushcraft" tasks. Just my experience.
